The Joy continues…

Before After

Well, the Joy has continued! I am keeping only the things that bring me Joy – following Marie Kondo’s tips about the Japanese Art of Tidying. The first category had been clothes – I did those last week. But for me the next category was always going to be more difficult – how to get rid of books. I love reading, I love books – and that amounts to lots of books, with my wardrobe containing more books than clothes! Today was the day I did the Joy test. Does this book bring me Joy – for where I am at now in my life? Funny that many of my college books gave me a feeling of heaviness! Those ones went in the pile. I kept some – but a car boot load went to the charity shop. A great job! May the Joy continue!
